Sig's Onion soup with Brandy, #myfavouriterecipes
beautiful onion soup, I am cooking this tomorrow . #myfavouriterecipes
I love the deep caramelised taste of french onion soup , so here I have recreated this soup , it most certainly is worth the time and effort, hope you enjoy too. You can use different cheeses as I have done this time as it needed using up, if you wish. In the olden days in France the bread soaked up almost all of the liquid and it was meant to be that way. So if you want to eat it like that, more like a thick onion and cheese bread pudding then go ahead, it's awesome.

Short Rib French Onion Soup Short Rib French Onion Soup
I made this recipe to give a dark rich French onion soup base, with an actual short rib per serving. Many recipes online give watery bland soups, with shredded beef that I think defeats the purpose of spending the time braising short ribs. I also think that adding flour to the soup to give it body mutes the flavor and turns it more to a stew or gravy. Instead, I found adding gelatin to give the soup body was a better choice. I also found that using cubed toasted sourdough instead of the traditional cross cut baguette provided a bread with more toothsome chew and fits in the crocks better.

I made this soup solely to utilize this hard French bread that I had. Hahaha... so I used a whole bag of onions to essentially save some croutons. Well worth it.

Easy Onion Soup Easy Onion Soup
I love the sweetness of onions.Cut onions against the grain to break the fiber. If you don't do this, the onion will not have a soft texture.It burns easily when you sauté with butter, so please stir constantly.If you put bread and cheese on top of the soup and brown it in the oven, it will turn into onion gratin soup!
